A collection of authoritative works on British genealogy, this Family Archive contains images of the pages of eleven volumes of pedigrees and lineage records by the British publishing house Burke's Peerage. Few names are as highly regarded in English genealogy as Burke's. Not only did the Burkes compile authoritative works on English genealogy, they also created a unique genealogical style, specifically, a method of laying out pedigrees in narrative form. Burke's pedigrees are easy to read, easy to follow, and easy to understand. This Family Archive references more than 429,000 individuals. Among the volumes is the single best reference work ever published on British heraldry, The General Armory of England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales, along with other volumes of equal quality and value. Burke's American Families with British Ancestry; A Genealogical History of the Dormant, Abeyant, Forfeited, and Extinct Peerages of the British Empire; A Genealogical and Heraldic History of the Extinct and Dormant Baronetcies of England, Ireland, and Scotland; Burke's Family Records; A Genealogical and Heraldic History of the Colonial Gentry; The General Armory of England, Scotland, Ireland, and Wales; Genealogical and Heraldic History of the Commoners of Great Britain and Ireland by John Bernard Burke (reprinted with George Ormerod's Index to Pedigrees in Burke's Commoners); The Prominent Families of the United States of America
